Feed the database (I expect you to already have created the MySQL-database. If not: Do it.) Use fontlinge_base --dbinsert ~/fontbase to empty the 'fonts'-database
and create a new one. This command will write the fonts' informations
into a database.
We need this informations for fast family-reunion and dupefinding and for the Fontlinge WebGUI. In the following steps you'll read that your database has to be "valid" and has to be rebuilt if you (or a fontlinge_* tool) have touched any file in your fontbase folder. This means that you have to execute the command described on this page. |
You have to update your font database EVERY TIME the content of your fontbase folder changes, even if a fontlinge_* tool does this! Note: "~/fontbase" is the folder where your fonts were moved or copied. It is the folder you used with the fontbase-option or just ~/fontbase. |
